Well-usually the nuts use one of these babies:
A standard '88 borg chip, but Kope's coming up with his own great ideas, so he must be using something different (or as you rightfully speculated-nothing at all).
Its because he's spent so many hours examining porn and bikinis in great detail. Purely for religious research purposes, obviously. The result is an obsession which blinds him to the triviality of both subjects in the greater scheme of things.
I mean, there are tribes in the Amazonian jungle who have survived for thousands and thousand of years even though their women wear little more than a pair of knickers and a string of beads, and the only reason they're dying out now is destruction of their ecosystem. But, no never mind the planet, just make sure women cover from head to foot and we'll all be safe.
Exactly, this is often the result of strict moral deprivation and a religios taboo hand in hand!
